Abstract
TiO2 single crystals were grown in the absence of hydrogen, using an induction plasma torch. The electrical conductivity of these crystals does not vary in time under the application of an electric field. To explain the conductivity creep in conventionally grown TiO2 single crystals, a mechanism is proposed based on iron‐hydrogen impurity complexes which dissociate under the application of a voltage and can be restored by heating the crystal to 800°C.Keywords
